Catch per net (CPUE) is the DNR survey's count per gill net or trap net set; higher means more of that species were sampled, not a fishing forecast. Top species per gear shown; where we have no verified common name for a DNR code, the code itself is shown.
ALL FISH POPULATIONS SAMPLED IN FLOWAGE LAKE ARE NATURALLY REPRODUCING. NOP GILLNET CATCH RATE OF 3.5 PER LIFT IS BELOW THE SCHUPP MEDIAN OF 6.2 PER LIFT FOR THIS CLASS LAKE. NOP SIZE STRUCTURE IS GOOD WITH 64% OF THE FISH SAMPLED LONGER THAN 21 INCHES. NOP GROWTH RATES ARE FASTER THAN AREA MEAN, WITH FISH REACHING 21 INCHES IN LENGTH BY AGE III. WAE GILLNET CATCH RATE OF 3.2 PER LIFT IS SLIGHTLY ABOVE THE SCHUPP MEDIAN OF 3.0 FOR THIS LAKE CLASS. WAE SIZE STRUCTURE IS FAIR, WITH 33% OF THE FISH SAMPLED THAT WERE LONGER THAN 10 INCHES, WERE ALSO LONGER THAN 15 INCHES. GROWTH RATES WERE SLIGHTLY SLOWER THAN AREA MEANS, WITH FISH REACHING 15 INCHES BY AGE IV. BOTH BLG AND BLC CATCH RATES WERE BELOW THE SCHUPP MEDIAN FOR THIS LAKE CLASS, BUT SIZE STRUCTURE WAS GOOD WITH 28% OF THE BLGS IN OUR SAMPLE LONGER THAN 6 INCHES AND 29% OF BLCS LONGER THAN 8 INCHES. GROWTH RATES FOR BOTH BLG AND BLC WERE FASTER THAN AREA MEANS FOR ALL ANNULI.
